June 6, 2015
The United States Air Force Academy Parents’ Club of Central Florida is honored to welcome all of our
Graduates, Appointees, Cadets, and Parents.
Our June Brunch is dedicated to honoring our 2015 Graduates and all Appointees.
Welcome Appointees and Future Cadets. An Appointment to become a cadet at the United States Air
Force Academy is an extraordinary honor. For many it is the culmination of a life-long dream. It also is the
beginning – the beginning of a four year, extremely challenging regimen of academic, physical, character, and
military training. The environment is intense and rigorous. The first year, known as the “Fourth Class” year,
involves the greatest adjustment primarily for the cadets themselves, but also for their parents.
Welcome Graduates and Congratulations Class of 2015. You have reached the zenith of your four year
dream; you are now Officers of the United States Air Force. We stand proud and humbled at your commitment,
courage and discipline. Your legacy will remain with us. We wish you many successful journeys as you serve our
Country.
As we welcome and celebrate our future cadets and graduates, we also remember the history of our
Association. The USAFA Parents’ Club of Central Florida enriches the experience of parents during their cadet’s
years at the Academy and beyond. We provide support, information, camaraderie, and a greater feeling of
connection to our cadets and their experience. In 2006 the USAFA Parents’ Club of Central Florida reached an
important milestone by becoming a non-profit association under the 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
The USAFA Parents’ Club of Central Florida is organized exclusively for charitable and educational
purposes. The purpose of the Association is to provide assistance, encouragement, and support to the sons and
daughters of members and to each other in matters pertaining to cadets. In addition, the Association will provide
information and encouragement to parents of prospective cadets as well as assistance to the Academy Liaison
Officers (ALOs) assigned to the Central Florida area.
We invite you to become a member of the USAFA Parents Club of Central Florida. Members gather
together several times throughout the year and organize fundraiser events to enable us to meet our goals. We are
certain that your membership participation will enrich your USAFA experience. Please feel free to contact any
board member or club member. We are here to support you and answer any questions or concerns.
Respectfully,
Eugene Campbell
President

“Parents of cadets who unite together to support each other during that traumatic time when their
sons or daughters are away from home, attending the Academy.”
You are so proud....your son or daughter has been accepted to the United States Air Force Academy! The day
arrives. You stay with your new cadet at Doolittle Hall until the very last minute. Then you must say good-bye and
your cadet walks away to begin in-processing. You won't see your cadet again until Parents' Weekend.
What do you do now? You miss your "Doolie" already and you know you're going to have so many questions
as the days go by.
Most parents experience many emotions when their children leave home. As parents of cadets, you are very special.
Your children are attending one of the finest institutions in America. They will enter the Academy as young adults, but
after four years, they will emerge as officers of the United States Air Force.
Your children have left the nest ... how will YOU survive the four years?
There are presently 93 parents' clubs in the United States, with every state having representation. These clubs are,
basically, support groups. The parents support each other - and they support their cadets and the Academy. They're
in charge of rumor control. They voice their opinions. They provide shoulders to lean on. They remain members, even
though their cadets have long since graduated. They become lifetime friends.
As the parents' club liaison, we urge you to join the parents' club in your local area. For more
information, please contact us.

CLUB FUNDRAISERS
Our Club is completely self-funded. Everything we do is for the benefit of our member
families and cadets. To accomplish our Mission we hold a couple of fundraisers each
year. In the past, we have worked the Daytona races, solicited corporate donations
and matching donations, and current members have made donations. We have
discussed a 5K Run, a night at Cork and Olive for wine and fun, selling saber cases to
the cadet community, and several others.
We are actively looking for new fundraising ideas so please let us know if you have any.
Our fundraising activities have always been fun and are another way to spend time with
other families, share hints, get questions answered, talk about your cadet’s
experiences, and generally have a good time.
ALL SERVICES MILITARY BALL
TBD – Save the Date!!
Every year during the Christmas break, one of the Service Academies hosts a Military
Ball. The Air Force, Army, Navy, Coast Guard and Merchant Marines all
participate. This year will be hosted by the Army at TBD, more details to follow.
We hosted the event a few years ago, and knowing how much time and effort goes into
the planning and preparation for this ceremony, we appreciated the attendance from our
fellow military academies. We realize it’s a busy time for everyone, but we would like to
return in kind, and show them our support this year!.
BASIC TRAINING – JUST THE BEGINNING!
WHAT TO EXPECT DURING BASIC CADET TRAINING (BCT)

No Communication and Little Correspondence from your Doolie.

Spending hours in front of the computer looking for pictures of your Doolie on the “Webguy” website.

Your Doolie Day Out phone call. Be sure you are near your phone all day. You don’t know when
your Doolie will call.

During Basic Training, answer ALL phone calls from strange numbers. Your Doolie may have been
given a privilege from a Cadre and allowed to use their phone.

Not a lot of nice words about the Basic Training experience. Be supportive.

Support from your Parents Club. Ask any and all questions of the group during this time.

SEND YOUR CADET WITH CASH! They will not have access to their bank account until after BCT
and they will want and need cash, especially for room supplies and the Rodeo!

Frequently Asked Questions
http://www.usafa.edu/Commandant/BCT/FAQ/?catname=BCT FAQ
INPROCESSING
Arrive early to start in-processing. You will be assigned a time so make certain that you are not late. The
line of cars can back up quickly at the security gate. There is no need to get boots early as the new style
does not require a break in period. Take only what you are told you can bring although many find they
can bring sliders to wear under their ABUs which is very helpful during BCT. Parents, take a lot of
pictures. Make certain you know your Doolie’s BCT Squadron and Flight Letter. This comes in handy
when trying to pick them out of a crowd. After your Doolie leaves on the bus, make sure to attend the
free BBQ put on by the Colorado Parents Club. You can also watch the Doolies train in the Terrazzo
from the Chapel Wall Viewing area.
SWEARING IN CEREMONY
Plan to attend this ceremony if you accompany your appointee to Inprocessing. You will be amazed at
how fast the Doolies learn to march. It’s also a very moving and proud moment for parents, family and
friends. Your Doolie may not be able to pick you out of the crowd, but try to let them know what you will
be wearing. The public can observe the Swearing In Ceremony from the Chapel Wall. This area is part
of the public areas of the Academy. Plan to get there early if you want a good spot. USAFA seems to
change how they line up from year to year, so ask when you get there. There are bathroom facilities in
the Chapel, and make sure to bring binoculars if you have them.
DOOLIE DAY OUT
Doolie Day Out is a transition day of sorts between BCT1 and BCT2. This year is a traditional Doolie Day
Out where the Basics are released to sponsor families to enjoy the day away from the Academy. This will
be the first time many Doolies are allowed to call home. Be ready and close to your phone. You don’t
know when they will call.
MARCH TO JACKS VALLEY
Jacks Valley (donated land from the Jacks family) is a 3,300 acre training complex on the grounds of the
United States Air Force Academy used for military field training. Although the area is used year round by
various military units and some civilian groups, the primary use of Jacks Valley is during the second half
of Basic Cadet Training (BCT) each summer, when the new cadets (or “basic cadets” as they are known
during the first summer) train in a field encampment environment. The basic cadets march three miles to
and from jacks Valley, and while they are there, undergo one of the most physically demanding parts of
their training at the Academy.
While at Jacks Valley, basic cadets complete several courses. These will include the Obstacle Course,
the Self Aid and Buddy Care Course, the Leadership Reaction Course at which small groups are required
to work together to solve problems and cross obstacles, the Confidence Course with high obstacles and
particularly challenging obstacles that are not normally completed for time, and the Assault Course in
which basic cadets train in close-quarters combat skills. They also take part in small arms training.
MARCH BACK FROM JACKS VALLEY
1000+ really, really tired Doolies return to the Hill.
ACCEPTANCE PARADE
Family and friends are welcome to attend the Acceptance Day Parade. You will be able to see your
Cadet for a short time (2 or 3 hours) after the parade. Many families bring a picnic lunch since the Cadets
are not allowed to leave the Academy. Although this has become a very popular event to attend, it is still
not as crowded as the parades on Parents’ Weekend and Graduation. Plan to arrive early to get a good
seat. There are usually markers on the field to help you locate where your cadet’s squadron will line up.
The basic cadets are accepted into the wing and become Cadets. The fun has just begun! Many families
go with their Cadets to the C-Store to get books, supplies, etc. that they will need. The C-Store will be
very, very busy. Your Cadet will have time to get what they need at other times as long as they are
organized.
PARENTS’ WEEKEND
Parents’ Weekend will be the first time the new cadets will be allowed to leave the Academy grounds
since they arrived for Inprocessing. This is obviously a very big deal for them! Plan to arrive on
Thursday, you should be able to visit your cadet in the evening for a short while on campus. On Friday,
there will be open houses, a parade, and other activities. All cadets are required to attend the football
game on Saturday. Parents can purchase tickets and attend. There are squadron tailgates parties that
are mandatory for the cadets but friends and family are always invited to attend. All cadets sit in one
section. Your Cadet will be released for the weekend sometime after the game. Don’t be alarmed if your
cadet wants to eat and sleep a lot. They are all like this the first year! Remember, this weekend is all
about them. All lower class cadets must sign in on Monday by 7:00 pm (subject to change). Our club will
have custom designed club t-shirts available for purchase that we wear to the game to show our support
for our cadets. We hope you will join us at the game. Order forms for the t-shirts will be sent out at a
later date. Instructions for purchasing football tickets with our group will be provided later. You can sign
up for Parents’ Weekend online from the USAFA website. They will mail or email packets of information
for you including parking passes. Please check the Parents’ Weekend website for more information:
http://www.usafa.edu/superintendent/parentsweekend/?catname=Parents%27%20Weekend
WEBGUY AND BCT
This is by far the most popular website for BCT Photos. Webguy is a USAFA graduate who, along with
several assistants, takes photos that he posts daily on the AOG website. The photos are posted by
squadron. He will also post the daily schedule on his blog at the same website. Membership in the AOG
(Association of Graduates) is required to obtain access to photos during basic training. You can sign up
at Doolittle Hall during Inprocessing or at: http://www.usafawebguy.com/
The monthly membership fee is $20.19. You will receive a username and password to peruse the
THOUSANDS of BCT photos. Over 130,000 photos were taken last year just through Acceptance. He
will also take pictures at other milestone events so check the website throughout the year. Webguy is
arguably the most popular person among the Doolie parents. He is a parent’s lifeline to their basic Cadet.
You will spend hours each night searching the photos for your child. He has even received standing
ovations at the Acceptance Day Parade! This is truly a labor of love for him. The following websites have
photos but nothing near the volume as Webguy and they are not posted daily.

PROJECT WRITE2THEM
A non-profit organization focused on serving the U.S. Military. Their mission is to help improve your son’s
or daughter’s morale by helping you stay in touch with them during BCT. They turning emails into letters
from home.
http://www.write2them.org/
MAIL
US Postal mail is delivered to mailboxes in Vandenberg Hall. Mail during BCT should be nondescript,
non attention getting. No colored envelopes, perfumed envelopes, or food. You can copy newspaper
articles or pictures on to printer paper. The cadre will surely ‘train” you basic if he/she receives forbidden
objects in their mail. Be aware that they will not have access to their PO Boxes every day. Their visits to
st
the Post office during 1 BCT are dictated by the cadre. Mail will be delivered to them during 2
nd
BCT at
Jacks Valley. DO NOT send packages to arrive before Acceptance Day. Any packages received
before Acceptance Day will be held until then. See “Acceptance Day” package suggestions. Your C4C
will be running while carrying your package, so keep size and weight in mind. The US Postal Flat Rate
Boxes are great. You can stuff as much as you can into the box and not worry about the weight. The
sizes are just right for carrying with one hand/arm.

CADET EMAIL
Your cadet will not have email capability until after Acceptance Day when computers are issued. When
issued, the address should be:
C19John.Doe@usafa.edu
(the C19 means class of 2019)
TELEPHONES
th
Historically, cellular phones have been held until each squadron determines when the 4 class cadets
can have them. Some squadrons are more lenient than others so time will differ. Refer to the Appointee
Package for the exact policy for this year. It is NOT uncommon for the cadets to be given their cell
phones and then have to surrender them back later.
ACCEPTANCE DAY Care Package (suggestions)
Always – always – ask your cadet first if s/he is allowed to
have these items. Some squadrons don’t. Also, roommates often get
duplicate supplies from their parents. So check with your cadet so that
all 3 roommates don’t all get Windex & no one gets Swiffer dusters. Cadets
are very limited to what and how many items can be on their desk, so make
sure to ASK your Cadet.

HELPFUL INFORMATION
Class Ranks:
Senior: Firstie, 1˚, C1C
Junior: 2˚, C2C
Sophomore: 3˚, C3C
Freshman: Doolie, 4˚, C4C
Basic Training Period: Basic
Dormitories:
The two dormitories (halls) are Sijan and Vandenberg (Vandy). Sijan is on
the South side of the Academy (right of the Chapel viewing wall) and
Vandenberg is on the North side. All cadet Postal boxes are in Vandenberg.
Some squadrons will change rooms and roommates the Doolie year at
semester break. After the Doolie year, Cadets are assigned to their
permanent squad and are assigned to a new dorm/room/roommates
(although this practice may change for the Class of 2019). Some squads
allow you to request roommates. Cadets also move out of their rooms
during the summer. Each squad has a storage room where everything is
stored during the summer.
Blue and Silver Weekends
Weekends are assigned as either Blue or Silver. Blue Weekends are the
weekends that the Doolies have some free time. If you are going to attempt
a visit in the fall, the Blue Weekends are the target weekends. However,
Squads could be put on restrictions for a number of reasons at the last
minute. During the spring semester during Recognition, everything
changes and free time is almost non-existent and Doolies are restricted
almost the entire time. Silver Weekends are usually home football games
weekends where the Doolies are involved in training of some kind and their
free time is very limited. Doolies are required to march into the stadium and
attend the football games unless they have a different duty that day, usually
another sport.
Religious Services
Religious services are offered during Basic Training. During the school year
they are offered on regular service days at the Chapel. Cadets are NOT
singled out or treated differently if they choose to go to service. It is not
only fulfilling, it is also relaxing!
Grading Scale (subject to change)
A 4.0
A- 3.7
B+ 3.3
B 3.0
C+ 2.3
C 2.0
C- 1.7
D 1.0
B- 2.7
Semester grades are a combination of GPA, MPA and PFA:
GPA: Grade Point Average
MPA: Military Performance Average
PFA: Physical Fitness Average
HONOR Lists
Dean’s List: Cadets who have a minimum course load and whose current
SGPA (Semester Grade Point Average) is at least 3.0, excluding Physical
Education grades.
Commandant’s List: Cadets whose current semester Military Performance
Average (MPA) is 3.00 or above.
Athletic Director’s List: Cadets whose current semester Physical Fitness
Average (PFA) is 3.00 or above and who meet all other established criteria.
Superintendent’s List: Cadets who are on all three lists, Dean’s,
Commandant’s, and Athletic Director’s.
Academic Probation (AcPro)
Academic Probation is a constructive tool used to improve academic
performance for cadets who fail a course or whose GPA falls below 2.0.
Cadets should not be shy about asking for help as soon as they recognize
they are having difficulty. In the past AcPro was not considered the end of
the world. It is still not, however, with reductions in the number of cadets
allowed at the Academy, a closer look is given to these cadets. Cadets will
meet with their chain of command an improvement plan is developed and
implemented. The goal is to have every cadet succeed!
Printers:
They can be purchased from Cadet Bookstore which is advisable as the
supplies for those printers are also available. Coordinate with your
roommates. Each Squad also has a Squadron printer but you have to go
there to get your printed copies which can be difficult until after Recognition.
Some Doolies have figured out that they can do all their printing then wait
until trash detail that night to go pick them up (restrictions are eased during
trash detail!)
Purchasing Textbooks
Textbooks can be purchased at the Cadet Bookstore on your account or by
credit card, or you can check out various websites including:
www.Half.com (part of Ebay)
www.Facultybooks.com
www.EasyBookBuyBack.com
You can also get digital versions of textbooks for your Ipad and Kindle, and
Cadets can buy books from each other.
Cadet Care Packages / Birthday Cakes / Goodie Bags
Check out the various options that are available. The Colorado Parents Club
offers an assortment of timed delivery of goodie bags (Halloween,
Valentine’s Day, Finals), plus there are companies and groups that will
deliver Birthday Cakes, Care Packages, Hot Meals, etc. Webguy, USAGA
website, and the AOG are great places to check.

TRAVEL ADVICE
IMPORTANT: Make your reservations for Parents Weekend. NOW!
The two airports that you will most likely use are Colorado Springs and
Denver. The CS airport is smaller but 15-20 minutes closer. It is a very
easy drive from the Denver airport (60 to 70 minutes). You can avoid the
toll road and most likely should unless you want to pay tolls plus service
charges to the car rental agency. You don’t pay tolls at a plaza. It is all tied
to the license plate.
During the Academic Year, the Academy arranges for Bus Service for
Thanksgiving, Winter Break, and Spring Break. The Cadets get to leave
after LMD (last military duty) which can be different for each squad. Bus
information is emailed to the cadets and they can make reservations.
Parents can do this on their behalf by calling the number provided when the
schedule is released.
Don’t overly stress about getting your cadet to and from the airport. Have
them make the bus reservation early, or you do it for them. There are
thousands of cadets going to and from the airport. They will find a ride if
they need it. Choose your flights that make sense, but don’t cut it too close,
especially on the return. Cadets DO NOT want to report back late. That is
very, very bad.
USO (DENVER AIRPORT)
For those cadets who may have a long wait at the Denver Airport the USO is
a good place to hang out. They even have free food! The hours are
sometimes extended of the Christmas holiday. There is no USO at the
Colorado Springs airport. The USO is located on Concourse A.
WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU VISIT (besides what is at the Academy)
Whatever your cadet wants to do! But some great activities include:
Pikes Peak – either by car or via the Cog Railway.
Garden of the Gods – cool rock formations.
Cave of the Winds – cave tour plus a challenging obstacle course.
Manitou Springs – great little tourist town at the base of Pikes Peak.
White water rafting, snow skiing, etc.
Colorado Springs has every imaginable restaurant, movie theatres, and
more. Just enjoy the time with your Cadet!
